This flamenco guitar was made by Javier Castaño in 2024. Javier Castaño was born in Madrid in 1974. Aged 14, he was really skilled, and his playing, really touching. When he was 22, he started his career as a guitar maker, taking several courses with Maestro Rafael López Porras, in Cádiz. In 2008 he completely devoted himself to the Madrid school. It is now when his career as a guitar maker takes a whole new direction, acquiring the knowledge and technique from this school of maestros. In 2014 he began working directly with the firm Conde Hermanos, in Atocha Street, shaping and providing the instrument with Julio Conde´s sound.
This is one of the first guitars we received built with the sequoia wood that we acquired a few months ago and that we distributed among the best guitar makers so that they could build guitars of superior quality for us, exclusive and unique. (YOU CAN ACCESS THE NEWS BY CLICKING HERE). The back and sides are made of Indian rosewood, with a straight grain and beautiful tones.
This guitar is perfect in every sense. We have mentioned it some other times: the sound qualities of the sequoia, with the sweetness from the pine tree, and the quickness and the scope of the cedar, all of it makes sequoia wood as the trendiest material, to put it bluntly. The sound quality of this guitar is truly astonishing, with a very pronounced and deep bass and trebles that have an unusual sustain and projection. Without a doubt, Javier Castaño’s guitars are becoming some of the favorites in the market due to the excellent quality-price ratio they offer.
This guitar has the highly-valued “rebound beating” on the right hand, combined with fantastic softness on the left one, thus accomplishing the “perfect instrument”, should we want to spend hours and hours playing non-stop with a nice feeling of ease.
The condition of this flamenco guitar is brand new.
